Tikehau Capital (Paris:TKO):

These materials are not an offer for sale of Tikehau Capital shares in the United States or in any other jurisdiction. Tikehau Capital shares may not be sold in the United States absent registration or an exemption from registration under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Tikehau Capital does not intend to register in the United States any portion of the offering or to conduct a public offering of the shares in the United States.

Tikehau Capital (the “Company”) today announced the success of its share capital increase with preferential subscription rights to existing shareholders announced on June 30, 2017 (the “Rights Issue”).

The gross proceeds of the Rights Issue, after exercise in full of the extension clause by the Company’s Manager and General Partner, amount to 701,874,074 euros (including the issue premium) and result in the issuance of 31,903,367 new shares (the “New Shares”) at a subscription price of 22 euros per new share.

The proceeds from the Rights Issue will primarily be used to finance the Company’s next phase of development and to accelerate its growth, targeting 20 billion euros of assets under management by 2020. In an alternative asset management industry consolidating around two profiles of players (multi-strategy asset management companies and specialized players) the Company intends to:

  • Invest in new funds and strategies the Group is preparing to launch in 2017 in three of its business lines: private debt (in particular direct lending (Tikehau Direct Lending IV) and debt securitization (CLO III)), real estate and private equity;
  • Finance its growth operations, to develop new and existing strategies and to consolidate and expand its operations; and
  • Seize opportunities for external growth in several strategies in France and abroad.

Settlement/delivery and beginning of trading on Euronext Paris (Segment A) of the New Shares will take place on July 26, 2017. The New Shares will carry dividend rights and their holders will be entitled to any dividends distributed by Tikehau Capital from the date of issuance. The New Shares will be, as from their issuance date, fully fungible with Tikehau Capital’s existing shares and will be traded under the same ISIN code FR0013230612.

Following the completion of the Rights Issue, the share capital of Tikehau Capital will consist of 102,799,748 shares and voting rights and will amount to 1,233,596,976 euros.

Tikehau Capital has agreed to a lock-up period of 180 calendar days after the settlement–delivery date of the Rights Issue, subject to certain exceptions.
